Was ''Maia, mother of Hermes'' the name of Wisdow/Logos in Alexandria?

[Giuseppe]

As from title.

''Mary'' would be the nearest Jewish name for the mother of the Logos Jesus.

Borne in Greek mythology by the eldest and most beautiful of the Pleiades, a daughter of Atlas and mother of Hermes by Zeus. Maia is also borne in Roman mythology by an earth-goddess who is sometimes equated with the Greek Maia. The month of May is named in her honor.

The reference to Maia having a place in both Greek and Roman mythology is interesting, as is "borne in Roman mythology by an earth-goddess" who is "sometimes equated with the Greek Maia".

Co-opting Maia as the mother of the new god Jesus would seem to be a corollary to Serapis being a god that Ptolemy Soter I is said to have either invented or co-opted and modified to unite the Greeks and the Egyptians to counter instability after the death of Alexander the Great in the 4th century b.c.e. [~323bc]. Serapis = Osiris and Apis combined.

According to the Homeric Hymn to Hermes, Zeus in the dead of night secretly begot Hermes upon Maia, who avoided the company of the gods, in a cave of Cyllene.


Roman Maia
In ancient Roman religion and myth, Maia embodied the concept of growth,[11] as her name was thought to be related to the comparative adjective maius, maior, "larger, greater." Originally, she may have been a homonym independent of the Greek Maia, whose myths she absorbed through the Hellenization of Latin literature and culture.[12]

In an archaic Roman prayer,[13] Maia appears as an attribute of Vulcan, in an invocational list of male deities paired with female abstractions representing some aspect of their functionality. She was explicitly identified with Earth (Terra, the Roman counterpart of Gaia) and the Good Goddess (Bona Dea) in at least one tradition.[14]

and, Greek Hermes = Roman Mercury

History
[Mercury] subsumed the earlier Dei Lucrii as Roman religion was syncretized with Greek religion during the time of the Roman Republic, starting around the 4th century BC.

Like Hermes, he was also a god of messages, eloquence and of trade, particularly of the grain trade. Mercury was also considered a god of abundance and commercial success, particularly in Gaul, where he was said to have been particularly revered.[3] He was also, like Hermes, the Romans' psychopomp, leading newly deceased souls to the afterlife. Additionally, Ovid wrote that Mercury carried Morpheus' dreams from the valley of Somnus to sleeping humans.[4]

Archeological evidence from Pompeii suggests that Mercury was among the most popular of Roman gods.[5]


Syncretism
..... Mercury, in particular, was reported as becoming extremely popular among the nations the Roman Empire conquered; Julius Caesar wrote of Mercury being the most popular god in Britain and Gaul, regarded as the inventor of all the arts.[7]
